In this lively ensemble tale, four men steer their own escape from a steady routine toward a high-stakes misadventure that tests friendship, loyalty, and a sense of justice. Kumar, the son-in-law of a renowned industrialist, Bijon, a hardworking housing construction businessman with two wives, Ajam Khan, a motor mechanic whose wife is a small-time actress, and Animesh Chaklader, a retired air force veteran, all decide to chase a lighthearted romance and dream of a trip to Uzbekistan. Their plan is playful at first, built on the premise that a little secrecy and a lot of thrill will spice up their lives.
As they prepare to depart for Tashkent via Delhi, they hatch various plots to keep their wives and extended families in the dark about the trip. The tension between desire for a carefree getaway and the weight of their deceptions runs through the setup, casting a wary eye on how far they’re willing to go to protect their surprises. Just when the group thinks they have managed to keep things under wraps, Animesh's aunt, or pishi, arrives in the same city on the very day they hope to leave. The revelation of this arrival triggers a series of comic and chaotic misdirections as the men scramble to avoid exposure.
A comic but frenzied scramble ensues as they reach the airport, only to bump into pishi again. To dodge suspicion, they improvise by pretending to be foreigners headed for Samarkand, a disguise that sets them on a wild, globe-trotting misadventure. Their layover in Delhi provides a brief moment of calm, but a sharper shock comes when Bijon discovers that the flight they planned to take is suddenly hijacked by terrorists. The incident jolts them from a casual holiday fantasy into something far more dangerous and unpredictable.
Upon arrival in Tashkent, the group meets Lola, their travel guide, who opens the door to a city tour that blends intrigue with lighthearted discovery. Yet the mood shifts quickly as Bijon breaks the news about the hijacking to the others, a revelation that is followed by a flurry of news updates declaring them suspects in a crime they never intended to commit. Uzbek authorities move to arrest anyone connected to the incident, heightening the men’s sense of fear and confusion while plunging their wives into alarm back home, who are meanwhile racing to the same city to find them.
With the wives converging on the same hotel, the situation becomes a tense chase across a foreign landscape. The quartet decides to flee to Bukhara, as the Indian government—assisted by RAW agents and local police—tightens the net and closes in on them. The pursuit is chaotic, with almost every step they take risking exposure to capture by the authorities, the wives, and the security forces hot on their trail. It’s a nerve-wracking race that tests the wits and nerve of all involved.
Lola and the Uzbekistan Army step into the fray to help. The friends’ plan evolves from escape to a bold rescue operation: infiltrate a hijacked aircraft through the cargo hold, free the passengers, and prove their innocence. In a tense sequence, they manage to gain entry and stage a rescue, even as danger closes in. Bijon suffers a nasty head injury during the action, and a tense standoff erupts when the hijackers’ leader opens fire. Lola is hit while safeguarding Kumar, and in a decisive moment, the hijacker is taken down in a brutal, close-quarters confrontation that leaves the group victorious and the passengers safe.
Back in Kolkata, the heroes return to a reception worthy of champions. The state government and media celebrate them as RAW agents, solidifying their status as national heroes. The film closes with a reconciled circle: the four men are welcomed home not as fugitives, but as protectors of the innocent, and the wives decide to stay together, recognizing the strength and complexity of their relationships. When asked about his other marriages, Bijon offers a pragmatic, wry line that caps the arc with humor and warmth: “I can get married due to various reasons.”
Throughout the journey, the film balances moments of humor with sudden danger, painting a portrait of four men who, despite their flaws and flawed decisions, rise to the occasion when lives hang in the balance. The narrative threads—family dynamics, deception, mistaken identities, and a dramatic act of courage—are woven together with a steady tempo, delivering both lighthearted charm and a breathless finale. The result is a story that stays true to its core: friendship tested, love redefined, and a country uniting in the face of extraordinary circumstances.
